Changing ActionErrors to ActionMessages in struts application

[Vinutha Jagadish]

Hi,

I have a jsp file to display error messages

<logic:messagesPresent>
	<html:messages id="message1" property="noRecordFound" bundle="wag">
	     <bean:write name="message1" />
	</html:messages>
</logic:messagesPresent>

in my Action Class ActionForward process() method, i have code for adding ActionError like this,

ActionErrors errors = new ActionErrors();
errors.add( "noRecordFound", new ActionError( "No Record Found" ) );
saveErrors( request, errors );

and in validator-rules.xml file has,

<validator name="requiredif"
                 classname="org.apache.struts.validator.FieldChecks"
                 method="validateRequiredIf"
                 methodParams="java.lang.Object,
                               org.apache.commons.validator.ValidatorAction,
                               org.apache.commons.validator.Field,
                               org.apache.struts.action.ActionErrors,
                               org.apache.commons.validator.Validator,
                               javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest"
                 msg="errors.required">
      </validator>

Now, my requirement is to change from ActionErrors to ActionMessages,

i changed my code like this,

<logic:messagesPresent>
	<html:messages id="message1" property="noRecordFound" bundle="wag">
	     <bean:write name="message1" />
	</html:messages>
</logic:messagesPresent>

in Action Class ActionForward process() method, i changed ActionErrors to ActionMessages

ActionMessages messages= new ActionMessages();
messages.add( "noRecordFound", new ActionMessage( "No Record Found" ) );
saveMessages( request, messages);

and in validator-rules.xml file, i chnged ActionErrors to ActionMessages

<validator name="requiredif"
                 classname="org.apache.struts.validator.FieldChecks"
                 method="validateRequiredIf"
                 methodParams="java.lang.Object,
                               org.apache.commons.validator.ValidatorAction,
                               org.apache.commons.validator.Field,
                               org.apache.struts.action.ActionMessages,
                               org.apache.commons.validator.Validator,
                               javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest"
                 msg="errors.required">
      </validator>

anything else am i missing?

Thanks,
